MELTING FETA

I have a huge block of feta that I'm thinking of stuffing into a pork loin. Does feta melt smoothly or will be kinda goopy? I would appreciate your feedback.

Todd,
It doesn't melt as much as glob up (new word) Still good though and it doesn't run like other cheeses do

i use feta and it doesn't really melt at all it stays kinda the same way you put it in the loin.

Todd,
It depends on the milk too. Cow's milk has more fat so it will homogenize more than sheep or goatSteve

It doesn't really melt, but it makes a tasty Mediterranean-style paste filling if you mix it with some tapenade. You can also add chopped (squeezed dry) spinach and pine nuts to the combo if you like.Egging in Crossville, TN

It just kind of lays there.If you crumble it into finer pieces you won't notice the lumps as much.I will use a 1/2 cup of it mixed with pine nuts and one apple diced and a teaspoon of rosemary and cook it up.

I use it a lot on portobellos......not your typical runny cheese.....more like goopy i suppose......but the flavour stands out in any cook....good luck...
